Chapter Text
“So? How was it???” laughed Jinx, as she was escorted out of the room. She looked at Silco,tilting her head with a hopeful gaze.
Her change of demeanor, with no clear pattern, and as sudden and flick as someone pulling the trigger of a gun never ceases to amaze Mel.
The girl was smart. This was no longer a question. She was strong, and capable of understanding emotions even if hers never seemed to be clear. She wanted her by her side, and to do so, she needed Silco’s. From what she has seen until now, he seemed to be the only leash for the girl, the only one able to control her: for the best and the worst, she had to deal with it. If used correctly, she would be able to offer further fortune to both soon to be nations.
Silco smiled at Jinx softly, petting her heart, worriness still lingering in his heart. He lowered his head, as if he wanted to clean her face, still drenched with dried blood from her recent injury. “You did a good job. Continue like this, and don’t show them any weakness. This will soon be finished, and I will do everything to take you back to home”
The blue haired girl answered gleefully, ignoring the mocking laughter of her dead family next to her. How would he react if he knew? Would he be next to them, laughing like that? Would he still want to take her?
She had to do her best, he was the only one left for her.
The traitorous sister had her top sider girlfriend.
Ekko hated her. Yeah, no sh*t, you killed a damn lot of his own family.
So she had to show that she was still strong. Because if not… She would be no different from weak different Powder.
The later one looked at Jinx with hope and desperation. It would be best that she didn’t take control.
“Jinx?” asked Viktor “Can you continue?”
Silco tapped her shoulder, staying close to her side. She lost herself again in her thoughts.
She hummed, trying to regain her composure. “It’s finally the fun test now, right?!”. She saw an enforcer going to the prisoner’s room, probably to get the long awaited answers. Vi was looking at her, while talking about something to Caitlyn. Everything was getting a little glitchy.
“Let’s go, let’s go!! What do you want now?”
“Well, didn’t you mention a weapon?” Jayce finally started talking. “You could maybe…show it to us?” And also gave it to more secured hands, if the weapon was real, it was not the best idea to leave it unattended.
“Oh!! You’re talking about Fishbones!” The teenagers finally regained true excitement. “You will love him!”
“But I left him at the tea party, didn’t I?”
She looked at the Councilors, raising an eyebrow.
Cupcakes’ mother intervened. “Caitnlyn and Vi already told us the placement. The people we sent to retrieve everything just returned.
“They dared to touch him?!” thought Jinx, gritting her teeth. They better have left her baby unscratched. She looked with anger at the couple of girls, who startled at her sudden reaction. Looks like, in addition to being idiots they were secret spillers. Why couldn’t they just keep the fun going? But it wasn’t like she could expect anything from them.
Viktor looked at the young girl, an amused smile dancing into his lips. Looked like she was emotionally invested in this weapon, huh? Well, scientists always had these kinds of tendencies.
Men came to Jinx, escorting her by both sides, as if it would help anyhow if she wanted to rebel, and the group went to another room, one for experiments by looking at it. One of the councilors, the short one with a dumb look, grumbled something about walking too much for nothing.
“Finally!!!” exclaimed Jinx, feeling relief washing on her. The baby was here, perfect, beautiful and deadly.
She took it from the table in which it had been laid. The perfect weight, comfortably heavy, the same as when she blewthe Council up after Silco died by her hand.
Her fastness left no time for the other people in the room to realize the dangerousness of the situation. A psychopath with a powerful weapon, in the same room as the most important people of Piltover was clearly not the best mix.
“Hey, careful with that!” screamed Jayce and the enforcers.
“Yes, yes, I know” the young girl released the weapon, before raising her arm as a show of innocence.
She then looked at her audience, with a proud face.
“I present you…. Fishbones!!!”
